'''Hongyan Group''' (Daxian: 红岩乐队), also known as '''Hongyan''' is a [[Daxia]]n multinational automotive manufacturer headquartered in [[Mirzak]].

History
As the Second Great War progressed, the Imperial government ramped up the national war effort by strongly centralizing production of all war materiel. To expedite the supply of materials for the production of combat vehicles, production of civilian vehicles was reduced to a minimum and the quality of materials available to do so became extremely limited. To oversee the operation of the sector at this barebones level, the Qian government created the Daxian Car and Automata Manufactory, also known as DACAM. The DACAM constituted itself into a state monopoly on the manufacture and commercialization of civilian vehicles, said vehicles were made of poor quality materials or substitutions and lacked in comfort levels seen in other countries. Yet its monopoly allowed it to remain relatively profitable for a time regardless of the low levels of customer satisfaction, there simply was no alternative in the market. The decline in the reputability and moral fiber of DACAM's government administrators took a heavy toll on the company's fortunes which began to founder in the 1970's and 1980's despite its total market dominion. Several scandals broke out that involved malicious accounting practices and inflated contracts with suppliers. DACAM's leadership was purged several times but as issues persisted and the company went deep in the red, President Min Bib Doda singled it out for the first tranche of privatizations. An independent investor and Doda confidante named Wei Hongyang approached the government to acquire the failing DACAM, his connections to the president guaranteed a small price tag of cents on the Lire for what was still a national company. Using several loans from state banks, Hongyand set about radically reorganizing the company and maximizing its yet powerful national monopoly to turn it into a modern carmaker.
